    Abstract: A system that assembles diverse individual thoughts into collective intelligence, making possible a structured conversation by a networked community. Participants contribute ideas to a robust conversational framework in modular form. This framework ensures that the conversation remains structured and continues on track. Each idea module competes with its peers through an interactive rating process controlled by the community. The resulting conversation represents collective intelligence arranged into at least two opposing viewpoints. The invention then enables these discussions to translate into real-world action by empowering the community with collaborative tools.
